  • Title: Characterization of a cDNA clone encoding the complete amino acid sequence of cotton isocitrate lyase.
    Author: Turley RB, Choe SM, Trelease RN.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1990 Jun 21; 1049(2):223-6. PubMed ID: 2194576.
    Abstract:
    A cDNA clone encoding the glyoxysomal enzyme isocitrate lyase (ICL) (EC 4.1.3.1) was isolated from a library prepared from cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) cotyledon poly(A)+ RNA. The clone is 1893 basepairs (bp) in length and contains a 1728 bp open reading frame encoding a polypeptide of 576 residues (Mr = 64,741). The deduced amino acid sequence of cotton ICL is 85.2%, 90.3% and 41.1% identical to ICL from rapeseed, castor bean and E. coli, respectively. Cotton ICL has a C-terminal tripeptide of A-R-M which is a putative trafficking signal for peroxisome (glyoxysome) proteins.
